Overview
This HTS classification, 5808.10.10.00, specifically covers braids in the piece that are made from abaca or ramie fibers and are suitable for making or ornamenting headwear. These items are part of the broader category of special woven fabrics and trimmings, distinguished by their construction and intended use.
Within the "Braids in the piece, suitable for making or ornamenting headwear" heading, this subcategory differentiates itself from its siblings by its material composition. While 5808.10.40.00 covers braids of cotton or man-made fibers, and 5808.10.50.00 encompasses those made of other textile materials, this specific code isolates braids derived from the natural fibers of abaca or ramie. The functional requirement of suitability for headwear remains consistent across these sibling categories.
As this is a leaf node in the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, the primary focus for classification under 5808.10.10.00 is on verifying that the braid is indeed manufactured from abaca or ramie and that its physical characteristics and design make it appropriate for use in the creation or embellishment of hats, caps, or other head coverings.
